💥 Formula 1 has been thrown into chaos after shocking new revelations suggest that Oscar Piastri — McLaren’s breakout star — may be the victim of internal sabotage. What started as a slump in form has now spiraled into one of the biggest controversies of the 2025 season.
After dominating the championship for 15 consecutive races, Piastri’s shocking P5 finish in Mexico cost him the lead — and raised eyebrows across the paddock. Fans, analysts, and insiders are all asking the same question:
👉 Is someone inside McLaren working against him?
Sources close to the team claim a mysterious “setup shift” was introduced after Monza — the same weekend Piastri was ordered to let Lando Norris pass. Since then, the performance gap has exploded, with Norris’s car appearing perfectly dialed in while Piastri’s machine struggles with instability and unpredictable handling.
🧩 The smoking gun? A new front suspension update quietly rolled out before Singapore — a component that reportedly favors Norris’s aggressive driving style but completely unbalances Piastri’s. Engineers privately admit the setup “wasn’t optimized for both drivers.”
🎙️ Team boss Andrea Stella insists there’s “no favoritism,” blaming “adaptation issues,” but insiders suggest otherwise. “You can’t go from leading the title to fighting for top five overnight without something deeper happening,” one McLaren mechanic allegedly told Sky F1.
As tensions rise, Piastri’s confidence has crumbled. His radio messages reveal frustration and confusion — “The car feels off, nothing I do changes it.” Meanwhile, Norris is thriving, climbing to the top of the standings with back-to-back wins.
🔥 The McLaren garage is now split in two: those who believe Piastri’s been betrayed — and those who say it’s just racing politics. But as the championship heads into Brazil, Las Vegas, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi, the battle isn’t just for the title anymore… it’s for the truth.
⚠️ Has McLaren sacrificed one driver to crown another?
⚙️ Is Piastri losing to his car — or to his own team?
👉 Stay tuned — the McLaren civil war is just beginning, and the fallout could change Formula 1 forever. 🏁
